Registrations

Update 27 Feb: Most registration issues with the new Play Football system seem to have been resolved. If you do still experience issues registering, please contact the system support team directly playfootball.support@ffa.com.au or 02 8880 7983.

Registrations for 2019 are open.

How to Register

Football Victoria has introduced a new player registration system in 2019: Play Football.

A key benefit is that families can register several players through the one account.

Accounts of players who had registered in past years using the old My Football Club system have been migrated to the new system.

Instead of your FFA number, you log in using your email. You will then be able to claim accounts linked to that email.

Note registration is not complete until approved by the BSC Registrar. The system generates a confirmation email advising you when this occurs.

Priority is given to returning players and players who attended our U12 to U16 trials in November 2018. Once an age group is full, further registrations are automatically placed on a waiting list while we work to allocate a coach and ground space. We aim to accommodate all players, which may include mixing players across ages to build complete teams. With the additional Beaumaris Secondary College ground available to us in 2019, we will be able to add extra teams this year.

Discounts

There are two discounts available, both of which are claimed online when you register:

Family Discount of $40: Available for miniroos and junior registrations only, this applies when a second or subsequent sibling registers from the same family. The system applies it automatically for eligible families.

Loyalty Discount of $40: Available for players who are registering for their third or subsequent season. This is applied using a loyalty code. Please contact the Registrar if you have not received the code. Note you can only apply one loyalty code per payment transaction so if multiple players in one family are eligible, it is best to do separate transactions for them.

Payment Plans

We try to assist all families by keeping the costs of registration to the minimum possible. BSC is a non-profit making organisation and all funds are used for competition, coaching, development and equipment. For families experiencing difficulty paying fees a payment plan may be arranged by contacting BSC Treasurer Benjamin Tansing: treasurer@beaumarissc.com.au

General Information about Training and Game Times

We understand parents have to juggle children’s activities and try to give as much notice as possible about when and where training and matches will be played. Things we need to manage are:

Reliance on Bayside Council to allocate venues for pre-season training—we only get access to the main club grounds and facilities after the cricket season ends.

The number of registrations and therefore teams to be accommodated in each age group—we don’t know this until after registrations are well underway.

Availability of coaches, many of whom fit coaching in around work commitments.

Training times for individual teams over pre-season in February/March may be different to the competition season, which runs from April to September.

For guidance, the table below gives a general overview of player training commitment & match times for each age group. As soon as dates, grounds and coaches are confirmed for 2019, we will update the age group pages with details.

Cancelling a Registration

Registrations can be cancelled via the Play Football system. Depending on timing of the cancellation (pre or mid-season) and whether the FFA/FFV will retain their component of fees, the club may refund a portion of fees paid. Contact the Registrar if you wish to cancel a registration.
